RE: gms intake shold i brenspeed tune?
Strangly, I just added a Brenspeed tune last week. I too am running GMS.Brent reccomends removal of the GMS MAF and replace with the stock sensor. Of course, you will need to remove the female to female connector too. Two screws, very simple change. I have only loaded an 87 tune and driven about 100 miles. Not enough to make a total decision. The car pulls harder between 2500 -4000 rpm and of course, shifts are much faster. I askedhim to make it every day driveable and not give me whiplash at each gear change. So far I like it. If you have extra cash it's cool but, overall I don't think it adds as much performance as just a CAI would add. Mileage is unknown, most people see an improvement. Again it's only been a few days and I don't drive the car every day.
In summary, would I do it again? Probably not but, you young bucks might like it a lot

According to your numbers listed above.....
CAI @ 18 HP for what $290.00?
Tune for another 5 or 6 HP for $380.00?
No wonder I can BARELY feel 5 or 6 HP. My wallet is lighter! I mean, ya got 400 to blow go ffor it but, for that amount you could have a new painted rear spoiler and hood scoop.
